ISSUE-125: Should CURIEs be more limited to not trigger on things like http://example.com?

Refine CURIE syntax

Should CURIEs be more limited to not trigger on things like http://example.com?

State:
CLOSED
Product:
RDFa 1.1 Core

Description:
The RDF WG has performed a review of the RDFa Core 1.1 specification. Gavin Carothers (of the RDF WG) pinged me offline and said that they're considering asking us to refine the CURIE syntax to be more restrictive, specifically, so that it uses a modified version of the PN_PREFIX and PN_LOCAL definitions:

http://www.w3.org/TR/2012/WD-sparql11-query-20120105/#rPN_PREFIX

Note: This would be a backwards-incompatible change, but would probably not result in any great effect on currently deployed RDFa documents.

The argument is that languages that use CURIEs should use the same set of allowable characters in PREFIX and REFERENCE.

RESOLVED: Make the change on the CURIE definition in RDFa Core 1.1, according to Niklas' e-mail, allow for ':' and prevent the use of '//' in the reference portion of a CURIE.
